This seems not the problem in this case as I'm using GMail and am |
| 72 |
receiving all the mail's to the mailing list. The "feature" of GMail |
| 73 |
whereby the mail sent by the person is treated as duplicate when |
| 74 |
received through list is not guilty of this "problem", as Ralf has not sent |
| 75 |
any replies to the above mentioned thread's (did not had the time to |
| 76 |
check every thread, but checked two). |
| 77 |
|
| 78 |
This seems like a problem which is affecting some subscribers and not |
| 79 |
all. This is odd. |
| 80 |
|
| 81 |
Hope this gets resolved soon. |
